I just put a small piece of 3/4" square tubing between the hood and the hinge to get my vent. Definitely helps with the heat that your legs get from the fire wall.

Here's mine: https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f58/ho...yay-nay-78417/

See last page for installed pics. I'm really happy with how they came out.

JCKustoms used the same ones too: https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f59/hood-louvers-81460/

They're not the largest but I'm kinda glad so I don't have to deal with a lot of water getting in. I do have pollen all over my motor though, its covering everything out here right now.
